Good App. not awesome.

I like the generic stuff: I can import my own epubs. Love the app. love the built in dictionary.
that being said, I wish I had the ability to import other file formats like mobi (a friend told me I can on nook, but I wasn't able to).
Also, I would love to have page animation for page flips.

Nook Reader App on Windows 8.1

Fantastic app compared to my NOOK for PC experience on Windows 7 which was a very poor app with lots of viruses due to the special download program. I had to buy SpyHunter and RegHunter to clean out the viruses. Nook for Window 8 & 8.1 has all the features I need. I especially like the ability to change the text size and create bookmarks. Hopefully you will have a Windows 8 Phone version of this App soon as Kindle already has a Windows 8 Phone App. Keep up the good work!

Excellent app for epub format on the windows.

Windows 10

Used to work in windows 8. Doesn't work properly in windows 10. The files don't work when you highlight or click on a link and the text cuts into the screen so you can't see all of it, or it doesn't align if you make the screen smaller.

Always buggy but improving

I have used the nook software for years now. Each iteration is notably better than the last, but still riddled with bugs. The most noticeable irritant in this version is formatting of sidebars or pictures within books. Sometimes the pages are hard to read. I continue to expand my library, however, so it must not be all 'that bad.'

Nice

The only usable magazine reader I've ever encountered. And Barnes and Noble appears to be the only way to get Coastal Living without either installing a dedicated app, or subscribing to the print edition...

Extremely DISSATISFIED! ( 1 star for your CS reps)

I have had nothing but problems since ordering this book and using Nook. I ordered a book that I need for a class I'm taking and the lack of service has caused me to have late assignments, affecting my otherwise 'A' average. I am unable to open my book, far more than I am able to. I hope that I don't ever have to order a book for college through Nook again.
Although, I can say that your employees are very nice anytime I have had to deal with them. I'm just completely dissatisfied with the Nook service itself!!
Respectfully,
